Curved Swords
Why am I here?
Perfer two handed swords
I love when people talks about things they dont know anything about.
Why he say calvary amd not cavalry?. I thought calvary is the hill in Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified.
They’re talking about swords like Donald Trump talks about Politics.
When you’re medieval history enthusiast white boys and don’t do any deep dives into resurche because you lack incentive. It’s fine really, if you don’t know anything about a topic it’s okay. It’s only unforgivable when you actively reject learning more about the world.
Their talking about it like it’s a cool thing. The history of this sword is so much blood attached to it. This particular sword was used for beheading Christians.…… CHRISTIANS!!! Just because we have faith in what we believe in. Trump and Israel (Sept.15,2020) just made a new coin to commemorate the new (ABRAHAM ACCORDS) peace deal with that sword on it. With all type of symbolism on it showing.….…WELL LOOK IT UP!!!!
Those warriros from Hammerfell, the have got curved swords..
is this turkish sword ?
Sounds like racict fat ppl down in the comments
“Its a little unwieldy ” says a man who’s never ever used a curved blade. Here’s a suggestion. Talk to an expert Polish sabre duelist. Converse with a Turkish kilij specialist or a wilder of the shamshir . You just sound like a Brit trying to understand tomahawk techniques.
These ppl are funny. Imagine a chinese chef talks about spaghetti and what is the correct way to cook it.
C’mon, its being used on horseback.
“Calvary” or “Cavalry” 🐎
it’s funny how they show a cross as if it’s a crusader fighting against a guy with a curved swords…thorught the 3 crusades and even until way later periods Africans and middle easterners used straight double-edged swords that looked a lot like the crusaders, although middle easterners had high carbon steel that was turned into the real way of making Damascus steel…the curved swords got popular around the 14th century.
What wwe star doing here????? I am fan of pro wrestling and swords but when I see him I have laaaaag
It’s khaleed scimitar sward 👍💪
🤦🏿♂️ scimitar is a generic name which refers to many different categories of swords that’s are not I repeat not the same!
This iş not sinirler sword, Ottomanish,Türkish kılınç.
Hahaha silly westerners using a scimitar like a long sword.
Where the Drizzts fans be at?
their sword is too big compare to mongol’s sword at that time
In India it is known as both shamsheer and talvar
Christian Cage
its not a shamshir… jesus christ!
Wth is christian doing on here???
Scimitar is strong when you go 360 rotation with it
If it has ”false edge” aka YALMAN then it is a Turkic Kilij not scimitar, shamshir, talwar and especially saber simply because Turkic Kilijs date back to Göktürk Khaganate in 6th century!! None of those had yalman until 15th century when they copied Ottoman Kilijs, in fact some of them were simplified versions of Kilij at first place like scimitar, shamshir and several centuries later saber from them…
1:17 Awkward for you, but not for Genghis Khan 🤷🏻♂️
This sword only good for pvp or training str… lol
اسم السيف هاذا سيمتار
“Calvery”?? 😂
Esa no es una cimitarra. Esa se llama swabbie
This is the whitest show ever. Not a bad thing it just is lol.
The “scimitar” is a fantasy sword. Its a medieval artistic impression of a middle eastern Shamshir, pulwar etc. The artists did not know what they actually looked like so they basically drew them like the only curved sword they had ever seen a medievel Falchion & thus the “scimatar” was born. I guess i should expect no less from the channel that brought us ancient aliens
It’s a shamshir. “Scimitar” is an umbrella term for non-European curved swords.
Is that Christian??
If I was in that time this is what I think I would have loved to use man they look amazing
I’ve had 8 years practice with a Sabre & let me tell ya it’s hard to use without lopping your own body parts 😂
This is the weapon that some Arabs used professionally and sometimes they used two in the hands and it was famous among the Arabs who were highwaymen in the past. The size of the scimitar was shorter and then its size increased to be able to confront the huge spears and swords, but the scimitar is made of iron and reinforced copper, which has become less rusty than iron and solid steel, and aluminum prevents rust.
The word is CAVALRY NOT CALVARY.
